"America's Got Talent" 8/4

The live performance shows got underway with a new set that featured host Nick Cannon coming down a staircase. I highly doubt this will happen, but I'm hoping he does a Jim Peck one of these times that he comes down that staircase; not sure what wife Mariah Carey would think of that. Speaking of Mariah, she'll perform "Obsessed", the first single from her new album "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel", on the results show Wednesday.
